Dear Onbu Riders
Welcome back to a new development diary!
Aside from the ever-present bugfixes and small improvements, our programmers have re-implemented events in a more dynamic way. So when Onbu wanders around you might bump into some beneficial or challenging events on your path.
Our intern Tim finished implementing the user feedback/bug reporting which will make all our lives a bit easier and put a lot of work into our Onbu Back Map Generator :)
The game design team has been prototyping various cool (and some pretty creepy) new buildings related to Onbu:
They also spent some time thinking about how Onbu parasites could be implemented
Our artists worked on the world map to make it even prettier than before. Its still not quite done yet though.
Here you see a little behind the scenes where our artist Steffi made a mockup in Photoshop and our tech-artist Markus tried to match the style as closely as possible in our game engine Unity. (The Background is the draft and the squares are what it now looks like in Unity.)
Markus also did some tests for new shaders and Steffi painted a gorgeous cover for a game magazine, but we cant show it just yet. Stay tuned :D
Thats all for today! The game is coming together nicely and is already quite fun to play (if you ask me). Lots and lots of things still left to do though. Well keep you updated :)
As usual please leave us a like if you enjoyed this update.
Cheers & Thanks,
Stray Fawn Studio

In a world where mysterious plants are spreading all over the earth, emitting toxic spores as they grow, a small group of survivors seeks shelter on the back of a giant, wandering creature they call 'Onbu'.
Become their leader, build their settlement and form a symbiotic relationship with the creature to survive together in this hostile, yet beautiful post-apocalyptic world that now surrounds you.
Build your village
A functioning village is the basis of your survival. Build your settlement and expand it over the creature's back. Plan production chains and optimize them to utilize the limited space as efficiently as possible. Create a society that can overcome any challenge.Live on the creatures back
Living on the back of another organism comes with its own set of challenges. Will you live in symbiosis, bond with the creature and survive on mutual trust? Or will you become a parasite, only aiming to ensure a better life for your villagers? The choice is yours.Discover different biomes
Travel through a multitude of different biomes and adapt your village to their unique opportunities and threats. Scout your environments and send out foraging missions to gather rare resources and ancient artifacts.Research new technologies
Remnants of the old world hold knowledge that has long been forgotten, but can be unearthed by your villagers. Find and research these technologies, but use them wisely, as progress can be a double-edged sword.Survive the wastelands
Ensure the survival of both your villagers and your Onbu, even though poisonous spores, merciless weather, bloodsucking parasites and many more challenges mean that the odds are often stacked against you.---
We're huge fans of Frostpunk, Timberborn and Airborne Kingdom and all of these games have inspired us to some extent.
